    Bit part players, cover for injuries etc, hopefully off loaded or a vital cog in the machine?

    Will Moyes hang onto them cos of their vast experience?

    Would prefer replacements to come in. Unless we can get defenders in Oshea will have to stay but think the younguns will be given a chanve ahaead of Seb now so get rid of.

    Think Seb's experience could be vital during this transition both on and off the pitch esp for the younger players. So for me need to keep both for the squad which is wafer thin in quality & experience - you can't replace their influence in and on the squad <cheers>

    We might see Larsson playing at right back - I'm sure he has played at the back for Sweden.
    I'd be happy to keep O'Shea as long as he's not first choice.

    From what I have seen so far, for now Seb, is for now our best right back, and JoS is our go too cover for Younis or Cone. Keep both as cover unless we get some serious transfer activity started and replace the other dead wood still at the club, big IF.

    Need them this season. Were thread bare as it is and I don't think we'll make many signings.

    There are better players than Larsson but he's settled here and doesn't need to settle in ........ plus he seems well liked and prepared to sit on the bench.

    Agreed. They're both sure to be called upon at some point too. Think it will be the last season for them both though.
